Welcome to the Level Best Easter Auction. The show is comprised of 33 images each painted by a different trainee of Artco. The bidding for each picture will begin at £5 and bids are made by sealed envelope. If you would like to reserve an image please email artcolevelbest@gmail.com
A little bit about the way we work in the Art Department (ArtCo).
We provide the tools such as blank canvases, acrylic paint, and brushes and let the energy flow.
I’m a great believer in not interfering….or interfering as little as possible. If I think that there is a lot of energy but no distinct idea of how to start making a picture, I offer a process like using a square or wedge shaped stencil to paint inside. If they then repeat this action, having chosen 3 or so colours, a form emerges which carries the energy with it and builds until there is an instinctive moment when the picture is finished.
Putting a background colour onto the canvas with a roller or a brush is also a good way to get rid of inhibitions, and make a start.
Providing a good atmosphere in the Art Department is important too. We work best in one free of
too much chatter, in a place where people can take their time and concentrate quietly. JRO, ArtCo.
